Storyboarding

Finally I have decided on, what I hope is the beginning of my final idea.

Shots

Obviously the first few shots will be distribution logo's because my film is a British film and so would need lots of funding. Next I will have a medium close-up of Gracie scrubbing the front door. This shot wont last too long but it will be shown for long enough for the audience to see that the word spastic is written on the door. This shot will be cut up and in between the shot there will be the opening titles displayed on a black background. I would then like three shots to be shown of Gracie putting her brush into the bucket. Match-on-action could be used. After this the title of the film could be shown. I am unsure as to how I would like the rest of my opening sequence to look like however I am sure that as I get further into the storyboarding process I will think of new things.

Sound

The sound throughout the majority of these shots will be the scrubbing of the door and the sound of Gracie putting her hand into the bucket of water. I think I would also like to use a voice over. Although I don't want to give too much away I do want the audience to know that Bethany, Gracie's older sister, has Cerebral Palsy.

Editing

At this moment in time I haven't thought much about editing. I think that many of my edits will be straight cuts as I feel that my story needs to be clear and clean which I think will be made better by straight cuts.
